Five virgins welcome Harry to Nepal

It’s 2016, but you wouldn’t guess it by the welcoming party rolled out to welcome Prince Harry to Nepal!

The redheaded royal was officially welcomed to the Himalayan country by five young virgins in a ceremony signifying luck and purity.

The women, in traditional dress, presented Harry with bunches of flowers, which he graciously accepted.

Harry is on a five-day tour of the country and has spent the majority of his time there so far touring historic sites and villages ravaged by last year’s earthquakes.

The prince looked dashing, as always.

Time for a happy snap with locals!

Harry visited several World Heritage sites which were damaged in the 2015 earthquakes.
